Commission plans privately funded memorial tree for resident Sarah Pilling
Summary
Commission chair announced the death of longtime meeting attendee Sarah Pilling and proposed a privately funded memorial tree in a neighborhood park; members voiced informal support and plan to plant in September.
The commission opened with the pledge and a memorial announcement for resident Sarah Pilling. Chair (speaker 1) said he learned she had passed away and proposed a privately funded tree be planted in a nearby park as a memorial, with the Shade Tree Commission coordinating volunteers and funding.
"Tree would be funded privately, so no cost to the township," the chair said, and members expressed support. The chair said Ricky (staff) is on board and they expect to schedule planting in September. No formal motion or allocation of township funds was recorded; members agreed to proceed informally and to coordinate with township staff and volunteers.
